UNSOLVED Add a simple search
-
Hi guys, I’m thinking it’d be of good use to have a simple file search for the Surfer UI. Currently, with some hundreds (and growing) photos hosted there, I do feel the need sometimes to quickly search for the file name and grab the link—without having to click through folders and sub-folders looking for exactly where it is.
I Hope this feature makes sense
!
ps. out of those i tried, Surfer is the one that keeps the original img file name and also in the url. It’s great!
-
I guess it does make much sense. I have rewritten the surfer UI last few days to be able to add more features, since the previously used UI library was quite limited.
Do you have any thoughts about how such a search would look like? -
@vjvanjungg why not visit the Surfer page instead and use the browser search tool
Ctrl-F
? -
@nebulon I’ve checked out Meemo with the search recently. If compatible technically, may be part of it could be brought here to save time/work?
-
@robi sometimes i don’t remember where i put it initially within nested folders. not sure if there are any more users like me.
-
@vjvanjungg aha.. nested folders.. that will do it.
Nope we're all perfect!
having a personal web crawler might be neat,
maybe using something like WebDAV with DASL would solve it?

Maybe Cyber Duck / Mountain Duck could help with this sort of thing too?
-
@robi well.. how did you read my next thought on the WebDAV thing! TBH, I’m curious but haven’t wrapped my head around the usage yet. will read it up.

@marcusquinn i will try it! looks promising.
-
@vjvanjungg I am telepathic and clairvoyant
-
I would not mind to add some search directly within surfer, this would probably be much better than having to use some 3rd party webdav crawler or such. I do not really have any experience with file indexers though, if anyone has, please let me know about the options on Linux.

@robi it dawned on me days ago, “yahh, that what he meant by nope we’re all perfect, lol” we have unique supapowa

@vjvanjungg it was a mix of sarcasm and affirmation.
